Formulations of recombinant furin
The present application provides stabilized formulations of furin (e.g., rfurin) containing a sugar, sugar alcohol, and/or non-ionic surfactant. As compared to non-stabilized compositions, the furin formulations disclosed herein retain greater amounts of furin activity and monomeric furin content, while reducing furin aggregation when stored and/or subjected to mechanical stress. Also provided are methods for stably diluting furin (e.g., rfurin) compositions.
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR IMMUNOMODULATION
The methods and uses described herein relate to the modulation of the immune system by modulation of Sema3F levels and/or activity, e.g. suppressing allograft rejection or inflammation by administering a Sema3F agonist or increasing an immune response by administering a Sema3F inhibitor.
FURIN-CLEAVABLE DELIVERY CONSTRUCTS
The present disclosure provides furin-cleavable delivery constructs that include a transcytosing element that is derived from a mono-ADP-ribosyl transferase and a heterologous cargo that is coupled to the carrier. The carrier is capable of facilitating transport of the heterologous cargo across an epithelial cell via transcytosis. The heterologous cargo may be released from a remaining portion of the delivery construct upon cleavage by a furin protease. The constructs may be used to facilitate delivery of a cargo to a basolateral side of an epithelial membrane.
